Postcard from Hawaii: Queens Beach, 6am and 9am

Bodysurfers and boogie-boarders near Waikiki - from my visit last week (Hawaii is my childhood home). I'll share cheerier, non-hurricane images this week.

(P.S. This Jack Russell terrier loves to surf.)

Agradables y felices imágenes para una época que no esta siendo muy feliz en general.
Un saludo, Angel

Peter said...

Great captures, love those frozen action shots, looking forward to see the surfing terrier!

EG CameraGirl said...

WOW! You grew up in Hawaii? How very cool!

Lynette said...

Fab photos! I cannot imagine surfing myself, never been coordinated enough or near any big waves.

I feel like I'm home when I see happy sights like this Lulu, just like Perth. Well captured indeed.

cieldequimper - lol, I shouldn't be showing too many of these as it does make me terribly miss it!:)

a.s.m. - thank you! Hope people don't mind if I take a brief hiatus from sad Princeton images - Hawaii seemed more pleasant.

Peter - I should've mentioned the dog was originally from Australia! Though his owner did not let him surf that day, alas.

EG CameraGirl - :) thanks! It was a fun place to grow up, but there are no seasons or beautiful autumns like we get here:)

Lynette - thanks! I'm clumsy, so surfing never worked for me (skateboarding was the next best for us non-surfers:). I'm the black sheep, my sister loves surfing!

LOLfromPasa - thanks so much! Hope you don't mind the little Hawaii detour this week:)

Tanya - thank you!

PerthDailyPhoto - you've beautiful sights there in Perth! I love how I can see aspects of Hawaii in your photos at times:)

LOLfromPasa said...

I love this detour....! Always love visiting places I have lived in and your pictures are great!!!!

Petrea Burchard said...

Pooch! I'm a sucker for a cute dog. Beaches are good, too...

William Kendall said...

I can practically feel the waves! Great dynamic shots!

LONDONLULU said...

LOLfromPasa - aw, thanks so much!

Petrea - I can't say no to a pooch either!

William - thanks! Lots of waves there to capture, happily.
